EUobserver.com is strengthening its team to provide
even better services to institutions and companies looking to communicate their
messages to audiences across Brussels and the EU’s national capitals.
From Tuesday (1 September), Dan Luca will take up the
newly-created position of European Affairs director. He is a European media and
strategic communications expert with nearly three decades of professional
experience in Brussels and across European member states.
“I am delighted to join EUobserver, a Brussels-based
publication recognised for its editorial sharpness, independent perspective,
and its impact on national media discussions across Europe,” says Luca.
Luca brings valuable experience, networks and fresh
ideas to the EUobserver project. With 25 years at Euractiv and relationships
with more than 500 corporations and associations, he adds a strong
understanding of the European policy and business environment.
Together, EUobserver and Luca will identify new media
products, partnership opportunities and innovative ways for stakeholders to
engage with European audiences.
“Europe needs a media landscape that fosters
constructive dialogue about the EU’s future. Now, more than ever, together with
political leaders and the business community, the media has a vital role to
play in strengthening Europe’s prosperity and democratic debate,” says Luca.
Luca was born in Romania and has been based in Belgium
for nearly 30 years. He holds a PhD in International Relations and European
Studies and has served as a visiting professor at universities in Belgium,
Italy, and Romania. He has authored numerous studies and books on European
actors, influence networks, and public affairs, including his recent
publication, Mapping the
Influencers in EU Policies.
From 2023 to 2025, Luca served as an adviser to the
Romanian government, working with, among others, the Ministers of Economy and
Health. His work focused on open strategic autonomy, European competitiveness,
and related European policy issues.
EUobserver is also strengthening its editorial team.
From 1 September Gaia
Neiman will join as full-time reporter focused on politics and
migration. She has previously written for Reuters, The Guardian and The
Telegraph, among others.
